HILDESHEIMER Arnold, PhDr., III/3 Marokkanergasse 16

HILDESHEIMER Leo, E., III/3, Marokkanergasse 16.

This listing does not provide any indication of profession and, together with many mentions of both Leo & Arnold HILDESHEIMER in newspapers of era it would seem that neither was necessarily engaged in a particular career (Arnold is occasionally described as "Staatsrat" - privy counsellor). Perhaps due to their relatively comfortable financial position (it is suggested that Leo's wife Rosa is especially wealthy but also that she is highly regarded for her charitable work), they were able to pursue many personal interests - e.g. both of them were active members of the Vienna Automobile Club, Leo was an ardent member of the Camera Club - besides, themselves being very much involved in supporting worthy charitable causes (N.B. irrespective of faith).
